Review Remedy Maker by Sheri Fredricks

Man by day, Centaur by night, Rhycious is a remedy maker who
needs his own healing.

He's the royal physician, famous for his cures. War and posttraumatic stress
disorder has broken his spirit, preventing him from finding true happiness.
Then a direct order from the queen to investigate an uprising forces him out of
his secluded cabin at the edge of the forest.

Patience is an optimistic, good-natured Wood Nymph who works as a mediator to
ensure harmony within the Nymph sector.

Environmental pollution in the aquifer stream that feeds the taproot tree of
her heart is slowly killing her. Resigned to the fact she will not live long,
she sets out to discover the mysterious disappearance of her sister. Experience
has taught her to deny herself the love of a male, but the gruff Centaur is
different. He doesn't push his expectations on her, only his healing nature.

When Rhycious loses his grip on reality, he believes his inability to control
his disorder will drive Patience away. Nevertheless, desire flares, and
Patience draws him close. Kidnapping and betrayal turn their mythic joint
venture into a deadly bout.

Will their love endure when survival hinges on trusting each other?

My Review:

I instantly fell in love with the characters and story
line of this book, Rhy especially (hot, hot and HOT!) I also loved the concept
it carried, the different races intermingling for the first time known in
history and them falling in love without a second thought of the background of
the evil prejudice that has clouded many visions for far too long. I found
myself laughing, crying and holding my breath in suspense many times over
throughout reading. There’s a ton of humor, action, adventure, super sexy sex
and fun to be had in this wonderfully vivid work of Sheri Fredricks'. Any paranormal
lover that wants to enjoy something completely original will get great joy
reading Remedy Maker :)

Rhy is a man during the day and a Centaur through the night. He’s also a remedy
maker, a very well-known and well respected one, that’s super-hot (oh, did I
mention that already?) and has a super deep problem within himself that even
his remedies cannot cure. He lives alone and loves his solidarity. He enjoys
helping people, but does not want them to invade his personal space. PTSD has
made him this way, it’s how he best lives with it. But that all changes when
his dear friend Samuel brings an injured Wood Nymph to his humble abode; she
invades much more than his living space and he’s not quite sure how to deal
with it.

Patience is one kind, caring, beautiful and very positive thinking Wood Nymph
whose way of talking had me laughing out loud multiple times. But her use of
words allows us to see how and why she’s perfect for the job she does which is
a mediator for the Nymph’s and she’s very good at it! Injured while searching
for her missing sister, she awakens and finds herself in a strange place
feeling a bit worse for wear. Meeting the well-known remedy maker brings forth
feelings she’s never before experienced and is unsure how to deal with them.
But our forever loyal and reliable fate runs its course and fixes that issue
with incredible smoothness ;)

I loved experiencing the growth of both the main
characters, growth of love, strength and character. Together they alone
accomplished a very difficult task that none other could accomplish for years
and they also pulled the wool from many eyes of those who had a very strong
prejudice and/or just a misguided mind. If I was to be asked my favorite
paranormal couple of this year is so far it would hands down be Patience and
Rhy. They are two puzzle pieces that fit perfectly together and each gives the
other balance, contentment and happiness they have never known.
